commenting on the good ,the bad and the ugly of gift registering

I had 2 showers.........both total approx 10 gifts the most expensive was probably under 15 dollars........There was NO registry.....no gift cards.........and no room to not appreciate "what I did or did not get".Life should be Simple in all things. Everyone should remember that. YOU get what you pay for but good sense also prevails, you dont need a $ 10 potato peeler when you can get one for $2. My suggestion is that probably every woman should have approx 6-7 kids (as my mom did)and learn to deal with what you do have. I DID NOT follow that and might have been better if I had. I can't not imagine what the future generation holds. YOu have some good suggestions. Just remember TO KEEP IT SIMPLE and get your thank you card started in advance . So what if they didn't send a gift or the one you did not want thank them for the special thought and dont wait the " your have up to 3- 6 months to be proper" in getting them sent.(they forget OR really remember who you are by that time)THIS ADVICE IS NOT JUST INTENDED FOR JUST ONE ANY SINGLE INDIVIDUAL BUT ANYONE .( as stated The Good,the Bad and the Ugly of Registering!!)
